The Facts: The Panthers agreed to a contract Friday with the second-round pick. Shelton will now take part in the team's first practice tomorrow morning. "We feel like it's important to come in from day one because it seems like good things happen," general manager Marty Hurney said.
Diehards Line:A fast start is even more important with Stephen Davis opening camp on the PUP list. Shelton will be given every opportunity to contribute as the power-back change-of-pace to DeShaun Foster.
